Build empathy through active listening and validation from "summary" of I Hear You by Nidhi Upadhyay
Active listening and validation are two powerful tools that can help us build empathy in our interactions with others. When we practice active listening, we are fully present and engaged in the conversation, giving our full attention to the speaker. This means putting aside our own thoughts and opinions, and focusing on understanding the other person's perspective. Validation is another important aspect of building empathy. When we validate someone, we acknowledge their feelings and experiences as valid and important. This can help the other person feel heard and understood, which can strengthen our connection with them. By combining active listening and validation, we can show others that we care about their feelings and experiences. This can help us build stronger relationships and create a more empathetic and supportive environment. When we actively listen to someone, we are showing them that we value their thoughts and feelings. This can help the other person feel respected and understood, which can deepen our connection with them. Validation is a way of acknowledging the other person's emotions and experiences, without judgment or criticism. This can help the other person feel accepted and validated, which can strengthen our relationship with them. Incorporating active listening and validation into our interactions can help us build empathy and deepen our connections with others. When we truly listen to and validate someone, we are showing them that we care about their feelings and experiences, which can lead to more meaningful and fulfilling relationships.
